Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
2 Aga m ekwupụta na ịhụnanya gị na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi; na i mere ka ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, guzosie ike nʼeluigwe.
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens.
3 Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Mụ na onye m họpụtara agbaala ndụ. Aṅụọkwala m iyi nye ohu m Devid sị,
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn to David my servant,
4 ‘Aga m eme ka agbụrụ gị guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi meekwa ka ocheeze gị dịgide ruo ọgbọ niile.’” (Sela)
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Selah)
5 O Onyenwe anyị, eluigwe na-eto ọrụ ebube gị niile, na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, nʼetiti nzukọ ndị dị nsọ.
And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD; thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 Nʼihi, ọ bụ onye nʼeluigwe niile, ka a ga-eji tụnyere Onyenwe anyị? Onye yiri Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ndị mmụọ ozi niile?
For who in the heaven can be compared to the LORD? [who] among the sons of the mighty can be likened to the LORD?
7 Na nzukọ ndị nsọ, Chineke bụ onye a na-atụ oke egwu; ọ dị oke egwu karịa ndị niile gbara ya gburugburu.
God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence by all [them that are] about him.
8 O Onyenwe anyị Chineke Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye dịka gị? Gị, O Onyenwe anyị, dị ike nke ukwuu, ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị na-agba gị gburugburu.
O LORD God of hosts, who [is] a strong LORD like to thee? or to thy faithfulness around thee?
9 Ị na-achị osimiri nke ji ike na-asọ; mgbe ebili mmiri ya na-amali elu; i na-eme ka ha dajụọ.
Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when its waves arise, thou stillest them.
10 Ị zọpịara Rehab dịka otu nʼime ndị ahụ e gburu egbu; jiri aka gị dị ike chụsasịa ndị iro gị.
Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thy enemies with thy strong arm.
11 Ọ bụ gị nwe eluigwe; gị nwekwa ụwa, ọ bụ gị tọrọ ntọala elu ụwa dum, na ihe niile dị nʼime ya.
The heavens [are] thine, the earth also [is] thine: [as for] the world, and the fullness of it, thou hast founded them.
12 Ọ bụ gị kere ugwu na ndịda; Taboa na Hemon na-abụ abụ ọṅụ nʼihi aha gị.
The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13 Aka gị ka e mejupụtara nʼike; aka gị dị ike, a na-ebuli aka nri gị elu.
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, [and] high is thy right hand.
14 Ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi, bụ ntọala ocheeze gị; ịhụnanya na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi, na-aga nʼihu gị.
Justice and judgment [are] the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
15 Ndị a gọziri agọzi ka ndị ahụ bụ ndị na-eji olu iti mkpu ọṅụ na-abụku gị abụ, ndị na-ejegharịkwa nʼìhè nke ihu gị, O Onyenwe anyị.
Blessed [are] the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
16 Ha na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼaha gị ogologo ụbọchị niile; ha na-aṅụrị nʼezi omume gị.
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 Nʼihi na ị bụ ebube na ike ha, site nʼihuọma gị, ị na-ebuli mpi anyị elu.
For thou [art] the glory of their strength: and in thy favor our horn shall be exalted.
18 Nʼezie, ọta anyị bụ nke Onyenwe anyị, eze anyị bụkwa nke Onye nsọ Izrel.
For the LORD [is] our defense; and the Holy One of Israel [is] our king.
19 I kwuru okwu otu mgbe site nʼọhụ, nye ndị gị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi sị: “Enyela m otu onye dị ike agha ike; Ebuliela m otu nwa okorobịa elu site nʼetiti ndị m.
Then thou didst speak in vision to thy holy one, and say, I have laid help upon [one that is] mighty; I have exalted [one] chosen out of the people.
20 Achọtala m Devid ohu m, were mmanụ nsọ m tee ya.
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 Aka m ga-agba ya ume; nʼezie, aka m ga-eme ka ọ dị ike.
With whom my hand shall be established: my arm also shall strengthen him.
22 Ọ dịghị onye iro ga-abịakwasị ya, na mberede; ọ dịghị onye ajọ omume ga-emegbu ya.
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 Aga m etigbu ndị iro ya niile nʼihu ya. Aga m emekwa ka ndị niile na-akpọ ya asị laa nʼiyi.
And I will beat down his foes before his face, and afflict them that hate him.
24 Ịhụnanya m kwesiri ntụkwasị obi ga-adịnyere ya, site nʼaha m, a ga-ebuli mpi ya elu.
But my faithfulness and my mercy [shall be] with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 M ga-edo aka ya nʼoke osimiri, dokwaa aka nri ya nʼosimiri niile.
I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 Ọ ga-akpọ m sị m, ‘Ị bụ Nna m, bụrụkwa Chineke m, na oke Nkume nzọpụta m.’
He shall cry to me, Thou [art] my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Aga m eme ya nwa mbụ m, onye kachasị dị elu nʼebe eze niile nke ụwa nọ.
Also I will make him [my] first-born, higher than the kings of the earth.
28 Aga m eme ka ịhụnanya m nwere nʼebe ọ nọ dịgide ruo ebighị ebi, ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na ya ga-adịgidekwa.
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29 Aga m eme ka agbụrụ ya guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ocheeze ya ga-adịgidekwa dịka eluigwe na-adịgide.
His seed also will I make [to endure] for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 “Ọ bụrụ na ụmụ ya elefuo iwu m niile anya, gharakwa ijegharị nʼụzọ m niile,
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 ọ bụrụ na ha elelịa ụkpụrụ m niile anya, hapụkwa idebe ihe m nyere ha nʼiwu,
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 aga m eji mkpọrọ taa ha ahụhụ maka mmehie ha, tikwaa ha ụtarị maka njehie ha;
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 ma agaghị m ewezuga ịhụnanya m, nʼebe ha nọ. Ma ọ bụ laa azụ nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi m.
Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 Agaghị m emerụ ọgbụgba ndụ m. Agakwaghị m agbanwe ihe ọbụla siterela nʼọnụ m pụta.
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that hath gone out of my lips.
35 Ejirila m ịdị nsọ m ṅụọ iyi, kpebie na m apụghị ịghara Devid ụgha,
Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie to David.
36 na agbụrụ ya ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ocheeze ya ga-adịgidekwa nʼihu m ka anyanwụ na-adịgide.
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 Ọ ga-adịgide ruo ebighị ebi dịka ọnwa. E, dịka ọnwa ahụ, onye akaebe m kwesiri ntụkwasị obi na mbara eluigwe.” (Sela)
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and [as] a faithful witness in heaven. (Selah)
38 Ma ị jụla, i werela nlelị jụkwa, i na-ewe iwe dị ukwu megide onye gị e tere mmanụ.
But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thy anointed.
39 Ị jụla ọgbụgba ndụ gị na ohu gị gbara i merụọla okpueze ya nʼime ntụ dị nʼala.
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown [by casting it] to the ground.
40 Ị kụtuola mgbidi gbara ya gburugburu, i meela ka ebe ya niile e wusiri ike bụrụ ihe dapịara adapịa.
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
41 Ndị niile si ụzọ ahụ na-agafe, ezuruchaala ihe niile o nwere. Ndị agbataobi ya na-akwakwa ya emo.
All that pass by the way plunder him: he is a reproach to his neighbors.
42 I meela ka aka nri ndị iro ya dị elu; mekwaa ka ndị iro ya ṅụrịa ọṅụ.
Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 I meela ka aka o ji jide mma agha ya sụọ ngọngọ, i nyereghị ya aka mgbe agha dara.
Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
44 I meela ka ịma mma ya gwụsịa. Ị tụdakwala ocheeze ya nʼala.
Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45 I meela ka ụbọchị ndụ nke okorobịa ya dị mkpụmkpụ. I ji ihere dịka akwa kpuchie ya.
The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
46 Ruo ole mgbe Onyenwe anyị, ka ị ga-ezonarị onwe gị? Ruo ole mgbe ka iwe gị dị ukwuu ga-eregide dịka ọkụ?
How long, LORD, wilt thou hide thyself? for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
47 Cheta, na ndụ m bụ ihe na-agafe ngwangwa. Nʼihi ihe efu gịnị ka i ji kee mmadụ niile!
Remember how short my time is: why hast thou made all men in vain?
48 Olee onye ahụ nwere ike ịdị ndụ ghara ịhụ ọnwụ anya, maọbụ zọpụta onwe ya site nʼike nke ili? (Sela) (Sheol h7585)
What man [is he that] liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 O Onyenwe anyị, olee ebe oke ịhụnanya mbụ dị, nke i sitere nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi gị ṅụọrọ Devid nʼiyi?
LORD, where [are] thy former loving-kindnesses, [which] thou didst swear to David in thy truth?
50 Onyenwe m, cheta otu e si leda ndị ohu gị anya, otu m si anagide nʼime obi m ịchị ọchị niile nke ndị mba niile.
Remember, LORD, the reproach of thy servants; [how] I do bear in my bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty people;
51 O Onyenwe anyị, ịchị ọchị nke ndị iro gị ji akwa m emo, nke ha ji lelịa nzọ ụkwụ niile nke onye gị i tere mmanụ.
With which thy enemies have reproached, O LORD; with which they have reproached the footsteps of thy anointed
52 Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Blessed [be] the LORD for evermore. Amen and amen.
